English Literature | John Milton: life, workshop and political activity | English Literature Lessons

John Milton (9 December 1608 – 8 November 1674) was an English poet and intellectual who served as a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England under its Council of State and later under Oliver Cromwell.

He wrote at a time of religious flux and political upheaval, and is best known for his epic poem Paradise Lost (1667), written in blank verse, and widely considered to be one of the greatest works of literature ever written.

Samuel Johnson:

' Milton --- can please when pleasure is required; but it is his peculiar power to astonish.'

I’m actually a descendant of John Milton..

My communication with my uncle Educated. Me on this. To
Be honest I wouldn’t even know who he is otherwise ….

I am a visual artist and it’s strange to ponder his thoughts …

We’re very different

Times are also though.

Paradise Lost is mainly about the
Relationship of the Fallen Angels
And the just-created human beings.
